TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for the first extension of stay on a Special Tourist Visa (STV), the timeframe in which you can make the application varies by location. In some areas like Chiang Mai and Bangkok, you can apply when you have 45 days or less left on your entry stamp, while other regions may require you to apply with only 30 days remaining. The fee for this extension is 1,900฿, which is the same as the regular visa extension fees. For detailed procedures, it's advised to consult your local immigration office.

Timeframe to get a 90 day extension from an STV: Depends on your local immigration office. It's either 45 days or 30 days.

"Chiang Mai, Bangkok, Buriram, Phuket, Chiang Rai and a couple of others all allow people to apply for extensions when they have 45 days or less left on their current stamp. The other immigration offices are 30 days. However, ask your local immigration office for specific details. "

Correct!

I'm also attaching the official requirements from Bangkok Immigration. Your immigration office may be different.
